Thank goodness...she's back!

When Poppypug Went Missing

Poor Poppy's had some 'pooter' probs.

And it is plain to see,

How very much she has been missed,

By all of you...and me!

Had she been eaten up by wolves?

Or back on the IC?

The mystery, went on and on

Where could Our Poppy be?

And then a message came at last

Our Poppy's doing fine.

She hasn't been kidnapped by bears

She's simply been off-line.

Oh Poppypug, we're glad you're back

No longer out of touch.

I think you know now, without a doubt,

We need you very much !

You are so welcome... don't forget you were the prime support for my starting and sticking on this running journey and kept me going throughout..

Joking apart, it has meant and continues to mean so much to me. x

[poppypug Graduate in reply to Oldfloss]

Ah xxx and you inspire us all with your wonderful posts xxx

[TurboTortoise Graduate in reply to poppypug]

Trapped in cyberspace? For some reason that reminded me of the end of Sapphire & Steel, when they are trapped for all eternity in the petrol station café... terrified me when I was a little 'un! Very glad you escaped! x

[poppypug Graduate in reply to TurboTortoise]

Hi TT ! Hope things are knitting together nicely

Trapped in cyberspace makes me think of David Bowie's Space Oddity !

I remember Sapphire and Steel ! Never brave enough to have a " Purdy " though ! xxx

[Anniemurph Graduate in reply to TurboTortoise]

Sapphire and Steel!!! I wonder if they are still there...?

[JaySeeSkinny Graduate]

Brilliant! You know you've made it when you get your own personal poem from Oldfloss!

Love it!

[Oldfloss Administrator Graduate in reply to JaySeeSkinny]

Thank you....tee hee!

I am not sure everyone would agree with you...in fact I am sure they wouldn't, JaySee, but, it gives most of us a smile, and there can't be much wrong with that

[poppypug Graduate]

I will treasure my poem always Thank you Floss xxx

[yamiskoi Graduate]

[Oldfloss Administrator Graduate in reply to yamiskoi]

Thanks.. a bit basic.. but it should scan, as intended... I was after all an English teacher!

Just a little bit of fun too
